Every spring, most North Carolina residents turn their clocks ahead by an hour as a result of daylight saving time. Although many people don't like the idea of losing an hour of sleep, they may not realize that this ritual has a number of unexpected health and financial costs. Specifically, this energy-saving measure creates an increased workplace accident risk for construction workers.
Former hardliners take a more lenient stance on immigration
Last week this blog noted that real immigration reform appears to be close to reality for the first time in years. One of the main reasons a comprehensive revision of immigration law finally seems possible is that a number of Republican lawmakers have adopted a noticeably softer stance on the issue since their party lost the last presidential election.
Senators nearing new immigration law with path to citizenship
As the laws on immigration continue to be debated, Congress will continue to discuss the national immigration policy. A new national immigration law could have a profound impact on all states, including North Carolina.
Update: Fatal workplace accident wasn't first safety concern
A couple weeks ago, we covered the story of a North Carolina man who died after becoming caught in a piece of industrial equipment. Immediately after the incident, state and federal workplace safety agencies began an investigation into the cabinet manufacturer's practices.
Industrial illness, injury risks come to roost in poultry plants
According to a report recently released by the Southern Poverty Law Center, workers in poultry processing plants are highly susceptible to developing a variety of work-related health conditions. The side effects of this line of work aren't limited to physical injuries; in fact, a number of workers have developed severe respiratory illnesses as a result of the unsafe conditions in these plants.
Proposed North Carolina law to address immigrant college students
A new law in North Carolina has been proposed to keep young immigrants from attending state and community colleges in North Carolina. As U.S. immigration law becomes a current issue, more states, like North Carolina, are changing their laws based on new policies.
North Carolina worker fatally injured by industrial saw
Officials from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration are investigating a recent workplace fatality at a North Carolina plant owned by RSI Home Products, Inc. The incident involved a 35-year-old employee who had worked for the plant for eight years.
North Carolina's new drivers licenses cause concern
Recently in North Carolina the state Attorney General has directed the Department of Motor Vehicles to issue drivers licenses to children of immigrants who entered the country with their parents as minors. The order comes about following President Obama's implementation of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) law. The law, which allows qualified person temporary work permits, has been hotly debated across the nation With U.S. Immigration Law being debated all across the US and here in North Carolina, many groups have expressed concern over the new laws.
Handgun training at work ends with one worker shot
A worker in another state was shot during a handgun training session sponsored by their employer. The worker was a maintenance worker at a school, which was sponsoring the handgun safety class as an effort to allow faculty to carry handguns in schools. A news report on the incident says the gun misfired and a bullet ricocheted hitting the worker. The person was listed in fair condition after the accident, but it is likely that it will take some time for the person to fully recover. Bullets can do extensive damage to a person's body, and likely require surgery to repair.

http://policelink.monster.com...]. Those who are in 12 week programs would merely prolong their training until they have completed all academy requirements, including law classes. More relevant, those in yearlong programs would simply have their law courses proportionately distributed throughout their year, working in concert with the other arms of their training. We agree that an officer is an agent of the state, sworn to "enforce law and maintain public order." Furthermore, we also agree that officers should not waste their time learning law that does not "directly concern their line of work"" Our disagreement seems to arise at what "directly" concerns their line of work. So, let it be known: the aim of requiring officers to take law courses is not solely to improve the policing of criminals or potential criminals; it also aims to improve the officers" regulation of themselves " both hold the utmost relevancy to modern policing. Even criminals are allotted certain rights found in the constitution that officers are bound by law to respect. All one has to do is login to Facebook or Twitter to see numerous videos of officers compromising the constitutional rights of citizens, criminal or otherwise, during interaction. I do not imagine these compromises are simply a result of officer"s negligence, which is likely in some cases, but also of their sheer ignorance. It would firmly stand to reason that these compromises, which serve as a threat to democracy, could be assuaged through active legal education required of officers. This does not mean officers would be taking courses that are not directly concerned with daily interaction with the citizenry: contract law, anti-trust law, federal tax law, and so on. However, for example, an officer learning, in detail, what courts have deemed an "illegal search and seizure" would greatly improve ethical policing within the bounds of law. You stated that most officers already have sufficient knowledge of law. Even if I were to accept your assertion that "most officers already have a decent knowledge of other laws" (not sure what you mean by "other laws), not even "most", considering how essential law enforcement is to maintaining order, will suffice. All -- the entire collective -- those seeking to be officers should, or should have the chance to, acquire a deeper understanding and knowledge of the law most relevant in day to day interactions.

Trash Compactors seem like such a good idea – trash condensed to 25% volume requires fewer trips to the garbage cans or dumpster. One quarter volume saves space at the landfill. There are some downsides however:
The longer garbage is in your home, the more likely there will be odor
Old trash can attract animals and insects
Bags can break when trash is compacted, especially with can lids and bottles
Compactors are difficult to keep clean and sanitary because of bag leakage
Compacted trash is 4 times as heavy to carry
Compacted trash takes longer to breakdown in the landfill
My recommendation? A trash/recycle cabinet drawer next to the clean-up sink. These pull out on gliders and have two attached wastebaskets, one for recyclable materials and one for everything else. Enjoy those walks outside!

North Pole Expeditions & Mountaineering
Every year, I ask people to come with me to the North or South Poles to see the effects of climate change with their own eyes. By bringing these people with me, I hope that the benefits these people's testimony brings will far outweigh the carbon emissions caused by their travels.
I also love moutaineering and can organise an expedition on demand.
Climate change affects us all, but it does not affect us all equally. The poorest and most vulnerable -those who have done the least to contribute to global warming- are bearing the brunt of the impact today.

Next Polar Expedition
Arctic Ocean, Last Degree to the North Pole 2017
Dear adventurers.
You will find here below the programme of our next North Pole Last degree trek for the spring 2018. It uses to take place between 01st April and 16th April and is organised in collaboration with Vicaar, a russian company based in St Petersburg. They provide the all technical logistics to fly us over the arctic ocean and opening such an amazing and unique drfifting station for only few weeks. It will be our starting point to heading to the north pole. The schedule for the 2008 season will be announced later in June. Hope to meet you next year in the cold at Longyearbyen.
And may I recall for you these words I wrote a long time ago :
"A place where all roads meet, a convergence of the imaginary, the North Pole is at the axis of rotation of the Earth. At this point, all longitudes coalesce, all time-lines meet, and the hours fuse together. All directions are South... This is a mystical, mythic point whose meaning outstrips the imaginations ability to grapple with it."
Stay tuned !
Contact us for more information
Your guide
- Alain Hubert
- From mountain guide certification to extensive experience of polar environments and expedition, Alain has it all.
On demand Expeditions
We can organise polar and mountaineering expeditions on demand. As a certifed mountain guide, I have the qualifications, background and authorisation to organise treks at your convenience. Just get in touch and we'll discuss.

Web Is Crucial Forum for Debate on Syria
Reformers, Dissidents Take Courage From Rising U.S. Pressure, Some Government Tolerance
DAMASCUS, Syria -- Ayman Abdel Nour's contest with censorship began with a term not uncommon in Syria: "Forbidden."
Last spring, the word appeared on the screen of his Compaq computer, barring him entry to his Web site, all4syria.org. His computer was the problem, he thought at first. Perhaps the server was down. Then he realized the government had blocked his site -- a forum for unprecedented dialogue among groups, parties and thinkers in Syria -- nearly a year after he had inaugurated it....

Played by millions of people, bridge is one of the world's most popular card games. Even so, Barbara Seagram (BN'70) never expected that she would fall in love with the game, much less write 25 books and own and operate a school of bridge.
"I sort of just fell into it," says Ms. Seagram. "After retiring from teaching nursing, I was going to stay home, raise a family and never work again. My mother-in-law at that time sent me for bridge lessons and I loved it. I started working for the local bridge club part-time doing administration and marketing and it just snowballed from there."
Fifteen years later, Ms. Seagram and her husband bought the club where she worked and grew it to become the largest bridge club in Canada, and the fourth largest in North America. She eventually sold that club and opened the Barbara Seagram School of Bridge which provides seminars, private and group classes, and supervised games to hundreds of beginner, intermediate and seasoned players. Once a month, the school offers drop-in sessions where beginners can play against each other and hone their skills.
Bridge is a trick-taking card game, using a standard 52-deck of playing cards, and made up of four players. Each hand of bridge is divided into four phases: dealing, bidding for tricks and trumps, playing the hand, and scoring. (Source: Bridge for Dummies).
Ms. Seagram says that bridge can be as easy or challenging as a player wants and what makes the game so attractive is that anyone can play it and every deal is unique.
"There is something for everyone in the game of bridge. No one ever gets bored with it. The challenge is immense and it is impossible to be perfect at the game. There is a huge margin of error."
She adds that a big part, and one of the biggest challenges, of the game of bridge is focus.
"One has to shut out all distractions. Multi-tasking is simply impossible in bridge as there are so many factors to consider on every hand. Thus, the drive to get better is strong in most people."
Ms. Seagram's books cover the gamut of topics, from Beginning Bridge to 25 Conventions You Should Know. "The learning never ends," says Ms. Seagram. "I have been playing bridge for 41 years and I learn something new every time I play. I think this is why I have written so many books on the game of bridge. I want to share what I've learned with others." Her next book, due out next year, is targeted at advanced bridge players and will focus on planning the play of a bridge hand.
When Ms. Seagram is not teaching bridge classes or writing books on the subject, she's travelling to various countries around the world, visiting communities and providing resources and offering support to its citizens.
Over the past three decades, Ms. Seagram and her companions have travelled to 164 countries around the world, including Cambodia, Vietnam, Laos and South Africa. With each trip they bring something for the children of the communities they visit.
"We have always taken suitcases of useful items everywhere we go and give them out to the children. We have done this for 35 years. Before one of our trips to Cambodia, we heard about a school that was in need of bicycles. We raised money to buy 40 bicycles and handed them out at the school."
But Ms. Seagram's outreach extends beyond gifts.
"While we were in Cambodia, we looked at the school and decided that it would fall down in the next high wind so we arranged to build a school, and then we built a second school, and took over two schools that had been built, but had no one to sustain them -- all the while, falling in love with the people of Cambodia, mostly the children."
Ms. Seagram and her team of family, friends and clients, now sustain four schools in Cambodia and have installed hundreds of water filters in Laos in Southeast Asia. She says that as long as she is able, she will continue to travel and provide support to the people and communities she visits.
"I think my passion for helping all starts with my love for people," she says. "That is something that will never leave me, and it all started with my nursing degree."
Even though her schedule is full -- working 18 hour days, planning upcoming trips, writing her next book and devoting time to her bridge school - Ms. Seagram still finds time to play the game she loves.
"I try to play at least once a week," she says. "I play with my husband Alex who has been playing since he was seven years old and is much better than I am. I don't think I'll ever stop playing."

Anyone that read my blog in June Family Holiday Dilemma would understand choosing and booking a last minute family holiday didn't go smoothly. However, we finally booked a family holiday with Mark Warner to a quiet region of Sardinia. The night before flying I got myself in to a panic after reading some negative trip advisor reviews. However, I am glad to say the holiday was amazing and exactly what we needed.
We stayed in Perdepera Resort in Ogliastra, a remote region of the island. The resort was beautifully clean, the staff where the friendliest bunch you could meet, the food was good, the beach was gorgeous and the other families we met were super. A perfect combination. This was our first time to travel with Mark Warner. Many families seem to travel with Mark Warner because it includes a chartered flight, childcare provision and water sports.
We travelled before the school summer holidays and the plane was only a third full. The planes capacity level did remind me of the poor trip advisor reviews. However, this was soon forgotten when the only thing I could hear was my son screaming in excitement while running up the plane aisle. It was a great relief when we heard two screaming voices realising it wasn't just our son. This was the start of a beautiful friendship that continued all holiday.
When we arrived, I just wanted to have a good look round. The hotel had three pools, a family one with an adjacent children's pool and a separate adult pool. The beach was a stone throw away and it was beautiful. Being near the sea just naturally has a calming effect. Everything was in close proximity so we made full use of all areas most days. We literally rolled out of bed to breakfast then rolled onto the sun loungers. Yeah you guessed it…we didn't lay for long with an excited 2-year-old. We didn't book the holiday for childcare provision and to be honest our son refused to go. Needless to say it was a service we didn't use. Therefore, we alternated some 'me time' and had lots of time together. Families that did use the childcare package spoke highly about the staff. Parent's had an option of a morning or afternoon slot that allowed them to participate in watersports or just relax by the pool. The childcare was included in the holiday price for 2 years and up and there was modest charge for under 2s due to the higher staff to child ratio. Everyday at 5.30pm they have an afternoon tea that was available for all the children. Children could attend the cinema club opposite the restaurant at 7pm allowing the parents to have a quiet meal together. Our son actually ate at 5.30pm and again with us at 7.30pm. The extra meal was soon burnt off at the children's Italian disco that was held every night.
This holiday was full of firsts for us all. I love the sea but always feared swimming in the deep water. This fear has lost me some amazing opportunities. Five years ago I didn't even snorkel in the Great Barrier Reef when I stayed on a boat for a few days……yes I know completely ridiculous. Anyway, I have been doing lots of personal development and I thought enough is enough. We went kayaking as a family, my husband at the back, our son in the middle and myself at the front. He did pretty well for 2 years old and lasted 15 minutes before he wanted to go back to shore.My husband and I went paddle boarding separately. It is actually harder than I thought but I loved it. The sea was so clear that I wasn't worried about falling into the deep water. Learning to sail was another option but it was unrealistic for us to do this time with a young child. I signed up to a 20k cycle ride to the local waterfalls that involved cycling on road and dirt tracks. Cycling on dirt tracks is an experience in itself……thankfully another holidaymaker told me how to position myself on the mountain bike. My husband took part in the social tennis matches and he entered a table tennis competition. There were other activities held by a personal trainer such as circuit training, running and stretching classes. All these experiences made us feel less guilty enjoying some inclusive wine on offer at lunch and evening meals.
The Perdepera Resort was beautiful, relaxed, friendly, personal and easy. We would definitely visit the other Mark Warner Resorts. I would recommend this holiday to families that want everything within the resort, childcare provision, quiet surroundings and water sports. The rooms are basic but we barely spent any time in there. The hotel was less than half full with guests so getting a sun lounger was never a problem. I am not sure if this would be a problem in peak season. The transfer from the airport to the hotel is two hours. We managed to time our son's naps so he slept during the coach journey so it wasn't a problem. The flight back to London was 2 hours and 40 minutes. We took an iPad, activity and reading books to keep him entertained.
We honestly had the best time and it was great to have limited Wi-Fi that made us live in the moment and really spend quality time together as a family (Wi-Fi was slow and only accessible by reception). Every time my son sees a picture of a sunny beach he says "I want to go on holiday now". This speaks volumes on how much he enjoyed spending time with us, experiencing new adventures and meeting new friends. Holiday time really did recharge us and most importantly we created memories that will last a lifetime.
This is a short video capture of our time spent in Perdepera Resort Ogliastra, Sardinia

A sinkhole in Al Ain nearly swallowed a Toyota Land Cruiser whole, much to the surprise and alarm of residents.
As these pictures will testify, the car, parked on the sidewalk near Al Ain's busy central market known as the 'gold market' area, sank into the earth as the ground opened up.
According to eyewitnesses, quoted by Al Bayan, the driver parked and walked into one of the shops nearby.
When he returned a large crowd had gathered and his car was half-sunk into the ground.
The collapse of the pavement on which the car was parked opened up a hole that was more than two metres deep and three metres wide, according to reports.
Traffic patrols, Civil Defense vehicles and Al Ain Municipality officials rushed to the site.
One of the engineers was quoted as saying that the hole was caused due to the leakage of large quantities of sewage in the tunnel below. "Also electrical cables located under the pavement added to the fragility of the soil," he added.

SPALDING COUNTY, Ga. — A Georgia high school teacher filmed the emotional moment when she surprised one of her pupils with a cap and gown.
A semester before graduation, Jamias Howard, 19, was no longer able to make it to class because of some private problems, WSB reports. He only had a few credits left to complete.
That's when his special education teacher, Kimberly Wimbish, got involved.
Every day after school, she met Howard at places such as the park and restaurants to tutor him — all on her own time.
"I want so much for these babies," she told WSB. "They have to have a fighting chance."
Then came the big surprise.
Last week, Wimbish drove by Howard's house. He ran to her car with a surprise — as she handed him a cap and gown. She told him he would be graduating after all.
Howard was overwhelmed, wiping his eyes and telling his teacher, "I love you so much, I appreciate it."
He will graduate this weekend.

When you recapture a clip, you capture its media file, even if it already has a media file associated with it. There may be several reasons why you'd want to recapture clips:
You accidentally deleted a clip's media file.
You captured a clip with the wrong capture preset.
You captured clips at a low resolution for rough, offline editing, and now want to recapture the clips at full resolution for your final sequence.
Recapturing is essentially the same as capturing. The only notable difference is that when you recapture, there may already be a media file associated with a clip. When you recapture media, you can replace the clip's existing media file, or capture a new media file to a different location by changing the path of the scratch disk. For more information, see Specifying Scratch Disks.
To recapture your clips, simply follow the batch capturing steps described in Batch Capturing Clips.
Subclips refer to portions of media files by using virtual subclip limits. When you tell Final Cut Pro to capture a subclip, the subclip limits are ignored, and the entire duration of the original media file is captured.
Merged clips are powerful because they allow you to group together a video media file and multiple independent audio files within a single clip. This is especially useful for dual system moviemaking, where video and audio come from separate sources and are synchronized during post-production. A merged clip is a single clip in the Browser that keeps these independent media files synced. When you recapture the media files for a merged clip, you may have to make several capturing passes from different video and audio sources.
Important: Generally, it's best if all audio files referenced by merged clips are stored on one scratch disk (preferably in the same folder).
For more information about merged clips, see Merging Clips from Dual System Video and Audio.

Styrene Butadiene Rubber Market Expected To Reach $9.9 Billion By 2025
6/29/2017 -
Dublin, Ireland - The global styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) market is expected to reach $9.9 billion by 2025. A significant increase in the demand for OEM tires from the automobile industry is likely to augment the utilization of SBR over the forecast period. In addition, long vehicle life coupled with a shift in consumer preference toward high-performance tires is likely to have a positive impact on the growth over the next nine years. In recent times, the demand supply gap for natural rubber (NR) has widened, making prices of the commodity a matter of concern. In 2016, growth in the supply of natural rubber was 1.1 percent, while the demand grew at a rate of about 6 percent. This deficit has been exerting pressure on the supplies and leading to high volatility in the prices, which in turn has been a major driver for the growth of the SBR industry. Over the last five years, the average consumption of synthetic rubber has been higher than NR by about 3,500 kilo tons per year. SBR is the highest consumed synthetic rubber, accounting for over 45 percent of consumption. Therefore, the restraints faced by the NR industry act as the major drivers for the synthetic rubber market. Further key findings from the report suggest: The tire application is expected to witness a CAGR of 1.7 percent from 2016 to 2025 owing to the rising demand from the automotive industry in emerging economies, including China, India and Brazil; the global S-SBR market is expected to witness a CAGR of 8.8 percent from 2016 to 2025 as manufacturers are increasingly focusing on converting E-SBR plants into S-SBR manufacturing facilities; the SBR market is driven by the rising demand from the Latin America and the Middle East and Africa regions owing to the increasing production of tires and the presence of numerous petrochemical companies across the region; in October 2015, Kumho Petrochemical Company, under a joint venture with Sunny Plastics Co., Ltd., set up its third ABS plant in China to establish its foothold in the Chinese market; and in June 2016, Versalis and Lotte Chemical entered into a partnership to expand their presence in the Asian synthetic rubber industry.

Before you know what kindness really is
you must lose things,
feel the future dissolve in a moment
like salt in a weakened broth.
What you held in your hand,
what you counted and carefully saved,
all this must go so you know
how desolate the landscape can be
between the regions of kindness.
How you ride and ride
thinking the bus will never stop,
the passengers eating maize and chicken
will stare out the window forever.
Before you learn the tender gravity of kindness,
you must travel where the Indian in a white poncho
lies dead by the side of the road.
You must see how this could be you,
how he too was someone
who journeyed through the night with plans
and the simple breath that kept him alive.
Before you know kindness as the deepest thing inside,
you must know sorrow as the other deepest thing.
You must wake up with sorrow.
You must speak to it till your voice
catches the thread of all sorrows
and you see the size of the cloth.
Then it is only kindness that makes any sense anymore,
only kindness that ties your shoes
and sends you out into the day to mail letters and
purchase bread,
only kindness that raises its head
from the crowd of the world to say
It is I you have been looking for,
and then goes with you everywhere
like a shadow or a friend.
I've always loved this poem and may have even posted about it before but today really needed and wanted to read it again and share it with the universe. It amazes me how at times people can choose to be other than kind to one another. Life is hard enough without the added stress of unkindness but alas through loss and we begin to feel how connected we really are to every other living being.
"What we reject out there is only, after all, what we reject in ourselves; and the most numbing pain comes from the protected heart." Roger Housden in "Ten Poems to Open Your Heart"
May you see your connection to every thing you come into contact with and may you not only show kindness to those people or things, may they recipricate in kindness.

While visiting my mom in Texas, we made our nightly runs to the bookstore, imagine that...I work all week in a bookstore and then when I'm off of work where do I hang out? In a bookstore...So while scanning the gender studies shelf, I came across an interesting book titled Dear John, I Love Jane edited by Candace Walsh & Laura Andre. There is a forward by Dr. Lisa Diamond author of Sexual Fluidity which I bought a couple of years ago.
The Dear John book includes 27 essays written by women who have left a man for a woman. They are all true and honest stories, some will make you cry, others will make you wish for that first experience again, the excitement, the newness, the scary yet inticing unexplored territory of the first time.
Dr. Lisa Diamond's book Sexual Fluidity was a book I picked up when I was trying to understand my attraction to women, my transition from being married to falling in love with a woman. My family is open and accepting, my mother is a professional artist so diversity was a part of my upbringing and I even have an aunt who is a lesbian so there was never any shame surrounding homosexuality. I was curious how my preference could just change at the age of forty. No warning, no latency, never thought twice about it. Maybe I was so busy from such a young age raising kids, fulfilling familial responsibilities that I wasn't aware of my sexuality. Somehow, having children so young must have paired sex with pro-creation or something. Diamond's book explained a lot about the female's sexual fluidity and although it was extremely scientific, it did give me some sense of normalcy in regards to my experience.
In Dear John, I Love Jane, I found first hand tales of women falling in love with another woman. These stories aren't all happy and certainly some end very sad yet they are true and that is what I look for in writing, honesty and truth. Funny enough, one of the essays is an excerpt titled First Date With Ann from a book written by Meridith Maran that I read in a religion class I took at SMU back in 1996 called What It's Like to Live Now about a woman leaving her husband for a woman. I didn't even think anything about it when I read it at the age of 29, guess I was too busy trying to graduate with two young children and a husband to relate to her story. Guess I didn't have time or energy to think about sex lol...
I highly recommend this book for all women and men as it can give some insight into the struggles involved with a woman discovering her attraction to another woman. It isn't an easy journey. She suffers from hurting those she loves, her husband, her children, her family, the other woman and mostly herself. I know first-hand the guilt that comes from waking up so to speak from an unfulfilled marriage. Once my eyes were opened, there was no going back and the thought of the harm I caused to those that loved me was excruciating. I made the choice to love myself enough to get out. Some women in these stories didn't take the leap. Some didn't have the support. Some did. Some left for another woman. Some left for themselves. The best word to describe all of these women that shared their stories with the world is BRAVE...

It never fails that when I walk back into the receiving department of the bookstore I work in, I see a book on the pile of new books just received, yet to be shelved, and salivate over it and feel I'll never be happy unless I have it as my own. I tuck it under my arm and slink out of the receiving department so as not to piss anyone off that I've grabbed a new book before it even made it to the floor. I take it to my office and drool over it until the end of the day when at that point the newness has either worn off or I still believe I can't live without it and proceed to the register to buy said book.
Today, I saw a book that caught my eye. It's the second book by this author about her experience with cancer and I've seen her documentary about her experience and loved it. It's called Crazy Sexy Cancer Survivor: More Rebellion and Fire for your Healing Journey by Kris Carr. Now I absolutely loved her first book Crazy Sexy Cancer Tips for her creativity and photos and honesty even though it can bring tears to my eyes but then again, I love something that can move me to tears. I debated whether buying a book about surviving cancer would jinx me as I don't have and don't plan on getting that diagnosis, ever...However, her message about surviving against all odds, about healing, about empowerment, basically about living and thriving not just maintaining for however long we are meant to be in this physical body. I think it is a message everyone can benefit from the same way I think we can all benefit from the 12 steps whether we have an addiction or not.
Some of the section titles are; Mind, Body aka Lovin' the Temple, Jesus, Buddha, Elvis, ETC.
One quote I turned to that immediately caught my eye and my heart "I feel naked and abandoned. I do my very best. I work so hard to "let go" of all the nasties in me, to do the "right" thing, and yet here I am drifting in a shit storm! I'd crawl on broken glass to go back, but I know I can't. So what should I do? How do I tie my shoe so I can take one step forward?" Wow, even though I am healthy, thank God, I've felt this way on one occasion or another. I think we have all felt this way and had to find the "survivor" inside that would and could get us through the challenge and to the other side.
So, thinking that an ounce of prevention is worth, oh I can't remember the rest, I'm buying this book for the survivor in me, for the fighter against all odds of the daily trials and tribulations I encounter and I want to toast in honor of Kris Carr and ask that you check her out online http://www.crazysexycancer.com/ she is a kick butt kind of gal I wish the best for and thank from the bottom of my heart for her inspiration and strength and creativity! What a positive woman! Oh and it doesn't hurt that she's hot!

Inspiring Use of Creative Energy
Cutting for Stone by Abraham Verghese
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Can I just start by saying this is one of the best books I've read in a few years. It starts out strong and doesn't let up. I was very surprised to discover how much I enjoyed reading about the field of medicine and the different perspectives of the different doctors and what they valued. I admire Abraham Verghese's ability to write so creatively and paint this picture of Ethiopa that made me want to visit this village. The members of this community are like one big family and yet they are so very different I guess not that different from a real family in that way. I was deeply moved by the relationship between Shiva and Marion. I've often wondered about the emotions of twins and if they can feel what the other feels even when seperated by miles. I would highly recommend this book if you love reading about remote villages, eccentric characters, medicine, psychology and so much more. This book starts with the birth of two boys and the death of their mother during labor and ends when they are grown so the reader really gets lost in this epic tale of love, family, extended friends, and the sacrifices people make out of love and compassion.

Midnight in the Garden of Good & Evil
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/386187.Midnight_in_the_Garden_of_Good_and_Evil">Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil by http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/4952.John_Berendt">John Berendt
My rating: http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/78795365">4 of 5 starsI enjoyed this book. It read like a novel and if it weren't for my book club choosing it, I wouldn't have read it as I'm not inclined to read something in the true crime genre. It didn't read like a crime novel or even a true account but more literary and colorful. I especially enjoyed the eccentric characters and southern culture as I wasn't born in the South and wasn't raised with this high society etiquette and customs or expectations. I now want to learn more about Sherman's invasion and the Civil War and look forward to the next time I'm able to visit Savannah and see all of the places he mentions in the book. I highly recommend this book for those that enjoy history, suspense, character development and more...

What A Bookstore For Women Should Be
The Education of Harriet Hatfield by May Sarton
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I found this book to be charming and endearing. After Harriet's loss of her lifelong partner Vickie, she begins to realize how dependent and sheltered her life was in that relationship. She never regrets being with Vickie as she is the love of her life and always will be however she starts to step outside of her comfort zone and opens a feminist bookstore in a diverse but somewhat conservative area. With a few threats and attacks on her opening such a place, she never stops remembering why she wanted the bookstore, to provide a safe place for women to come together and communicate, share ideas and offer eachother support. This "third place" as we sometimes hear it referred to, has always been taken for granted by men as they have the local pub or bar down the street and "boys night out". Harriet felt the need of this type of community for women and even after a tragic event occurs, she never stops believing she's done the right thing. She meets a diverse group of people, men and women, that come to her with their problems and often times she feels like a counselor. I think it might be the first time in her life she's felt needed and liked for being herself and not in Vickie's shadow. In this book, I saw how tough it must have been back then to come out and be gay, to call yourself a Lesbian and not fear for the loss your job, the loss of your family and friends right down to the loss of yourself. I would highly recommend this book to those that feel they are swimming upstream and discriminated against. In the end, we are much more alike than different inside.

The Unbearable Lightness of Being
The Unbearable Lightness of Being by Milan Kundera
My review
rating: 3 of 5 stars
I couldn't wait to read this book as it was mentioned by several authors I admire as one of their favorite books. I found it difficult to get into and was often confused due to the different storylines (two couples) switching back and forth. I'm thinking this book might include what they call Magical Realism and more and more I am learning I don't care for it as it confuses me.
I do think Kumdera has a way with storytelling and their is vision in his way with words. I enjoyed the cultural aspects and background of what was going on during the Soviet invasion of Prague. I didn't particularly love any of the characters so I wasn't really all that concerned about their story.
It seemed that Tomas was never satisfied and continued to search for the newest adventure only to be left unfulfilled again. His wife Tereza seems to be the most melencholy and loyal in the book however I can't understand how she is able to accept Tomas' unfaithfulness and merely pouts or gets upset. It felt like she was in a viscious cycle of hanging on and letting go of their relationship and life together.
It was hard at times to tell dreams from reality and I can see why this book would be great in a group discussion as there is so much going on with symbolism and dreams.
I was crying while reading about Karenin's death and felt so sad for Tereza's loss of her beloved companion.
I would recommend this book to someone who likes classics, literary fiction, books that make you think and possibly to a book group looking for a good discussion.

The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer
My review
rating: 5 of 5 stars
cannot say enough how much i loved this book. i so much enjoyed the correspondence between juliet and the islanders. getting tho know each character through their letters filled with opinions, experiences and gossip was such a great way to see them from different perspectives. i admired the fact that juliet followed her heart and allowed her life to unfold wherever she felt connected. if we all had the ability or the freedom or the lack of fear to just go wherever we felt called it seems our lives would be filled with relationships and experiences. i don't think she'll look back one day and regret she never lived to the fullest. i highly recommend this book for those that value relationships, new experiences, meeting different and quirky people and love learning about other's experiences.

Full Circle Perspective
Olive Kitteridge: A Novel in Stories by Elizabeth Strout
My review
rating: 5 of 5 stars
I just loved this collection of short stories involving the character of Olive Kitteridge in one way or another. I've never much like to read short stories for some reason. Maybe they leave me wanting more or maybe I just haven't given them a chance. However, these short stories were different in that they each gave a portrayal of Olive. She may be a customer, a mother, a wife, a friend, the neighbor or just walking through in a cameo appearance. By showing us Olive from every angle and everyone's point of view, I got a fuller perspective of her through different situations. Had I only read one of the stories, I might have misjudged her, thought her frigid or cranky or stubborn but by seeing her behavior outside of one situation, I was able to empathize with her and truly see her softness, insecurities and vulnerability. I like her and think she is spunky if not a little grumpy and set in her ways but maybe I'm weird but for some reason I feel when we have lived a long life and experienced heartache and loss and worked and contributed to society, we have earned a little attitude even if it is a little irritating to be around...

The Little Stranger
The Little Stranger by Sarah Waters
My review
rating: 3 of 5 stars
One of my book club members wanted to read a Sarah Waters and most everyone had read Tipping the Velvet and Fingersmith but me of course so we went with Waters newest book. Being that it is the first Waters book I've read, I found her writing to be amazing. Her attention to detail and character development was great. I haven't read many period pieces or any ghost stories so this was totally new ground to walk on. I found that I like period writing, especially when it involves a simpler, less technelogical society. I can relate to characters that aren't sitting in front of a tv or playing video games or surfing the net. I admired Carloline's independence and mind of her own attitude. Dr. Faraday was a little needy and annoyed me to no end near the end of the book, he felt like a stalker. I would have loved more of the haunting and ghost story to be used as those scenes seemed to move the story along fast and I found myself waiting for the next, often too long...

For the Love of Books
An Alphabetical Life: Living It Up in the World of Books by Wendy Werris
My review
rating: 3 of 5 stars
I enjoyed this book as I work in a bookstore and find the publishing industry full of good stories. After reading this book, it made me wish things were simpler now, the way they were when the sales reps would visit the stores in their territory with a few titles they were selling and the buyer or bookstore owner/manager would decide if and how many based on their customer base. I realize it might still be somewhat like this at the indies but unfortunately I work at a big box store and our stock is chosen by people in New York. I love hearing about the relationships Wendy built in the business. Not so fond of the "good ole boys" but hey they are still around unfortunately, especially in the South. I loved reading about someone who loves and obsesses over books as much as I. Sometimes I think I'm the only one but after reading this, I realize there are others, if only a small portion of the population, at least I'm not alone.

April Decatur Women's Book Club Book
Loving Frank: A Novel by Nancy Horan
My review
rating: 5 of 5 stars
wow, what a book...i'm so happy this was recommended for one of my book clubs as i wouldn't have picked it up. i found it so interesting to learn about not only Frank Lloyd Wright but a little about architecture and what was going on in the early 1900s in regards to politics, current events, society in general and I'm especially grateful to have learned a little about Mamah. She was an amazing woman in so many ways. I could totally relate to her longing for a more fulfilling relationship, more intimate and with an equal that could challenge her and make her think. I too am a lover of learning and seem to think intellectual stimulation is as strong if not stronger than any other kind, at least for me. I felt for her having to make choices that no matter what she did, someone would suffer, her, or her children, or Edwin her husband. It does seem that to follow one's heart often hurts others and that if we could just put our own longings, our own desires and passions aside and be there for others, life would be easier but it wouldn't be authentic either and as I've gotten older, authenticity has become more and more important to me. I highly recommend this book for many reasons, the historical aspect, the relationship dynamics are real and honest if painful, and the total surprise in the end. Makes me want to read more about Mamah and Frank outside of this book.

When it comes to curb appeal, your front door is a major focal point. You want a great-looking entryway, but not at the expense of security. The good news is you don't have to sacrifice safety and durability for good looks. Blue Springs Siding in Kansas City, MO has what you need to choose the right option for your new door installation.
Your front door is an important investment, so choose one that's tough enough for your needs. Wood is dent-resistant, and scratches can be easily buffed out. However, wood can suffer sun damage and warping due to moisture. While steel is more vulnerable to dents, it won't crack, warp, or fade. If a knick does happen, it can be fixed with an autobody repair kit. Fiberglass resists denting and weather wear. It also stands up well to moisture, making it a great choice for humid climates like ours in Kansas City, MO.
Wood has an upscale look and can be easily painted and re-painted to suit your home's architectural style and color scheme. Its hardiness in the face of wear and tear means it looks good for longer, though sun and wind can affect its vibrancy. However, you can get the wood look without the disadvantages of a wooden door. Fiberglass doors are available in wood-look finishes and textures; they can be stained for a more realistic wood-like appearance. Higher-end steel doors can sometimes be stained too, thanks to a coating of wood fiber or laminated wood veneer.
Affordability and less upkeep make steel and fiberglass popular door installation choices. Wood is more expensive, especially when you opt for solid wood, and requires more maintenance in the long run, in terms of painting and varnishing. However, unlike other materials, it can be planed to fit into a door frame attached to bowed or damaged studs. This option can save you quite a bit of money compared to the cost of repairing the frame. Steel is energy-efficient in all but the harshest climates, but glass panels can reduce its efficiency, adding seals and letting sunlight in. Meanwhile, fiberglass doors often have foam cores with insulating properties to help save on energy costs.
Blue Springs Siding Has the Door for You
There's a door material for every lifestyle and budget. Everyone wants a front door that looks great while holding up under all kinds of weather conditions – something we can truly appreciate in Kansas City, MO. From standing up to hail to refusing to warp during even the most humid summers, there's a heavy-duty option for your home. We hope our guide to entry door options helps you make the right choice. Call Blue Springs Siding when you're ready for expert door installation.

Kyle and I just hit the seven-month mark since his deployment began, which means we've officially been apart longer than we've been together since we started dating. I've written about the ways we deal with the distance HERE, but I'm not going to lie, it's still incredibly tough.
There's not been one moment, though, when I thought it wasn't worth it. Kyle's my person and I'm much happier with him in my life (though far away) than I would be if he weren't in my life. The distance is not forever. It's just for now.
Still, if you're in or have been in an LDR, there's a pretty good chance you'd identify with some of these struggles we've had to face.
1. Goodbyes are the WORST. I am terrible at the goodbye. I almost always cry at the airport. You think it would get better the longer you're in a relationship, but NOPE. Actually, we have a "no goodbye" rule: "It's not goodbye, it's see you later" (stemming from a super cute moment early in our relationship) but it really doesn't make facing the distance any easier.
2. You schedule your conversations. Or, at the very least, you have an understanding about what time you can expect to talk to the other on daily or almost-daily basis. Kyle and I FaceTime pretty much every day, and generally that happens sometime between 6-8, right around dinner time. You know it's true love when you put up with watching the other eat over video chat, even when it's kinda gross. Kyle once made fun of me for two days after watching me scarf down potatoes after an incredibly long work day. The sacrifices we make fore love.
3. Worse yet, you have to deal with living in different time zones. Luckily, we don't have to deal with this one right now, but when we first started dating and Kyle hadn't moved here yet, we did. It was only one hour, but even that hour can make a difference when the other one is heading to bed so they can get up for work the next day.
4 Your emotions are all over the place. One moment, you're just going along with your day, perfectly fine, the next you're flung into the pit of despair thinking about how long you're faced with being apart.
5 Your experiences are just a little bit diluted by the fact that they're not there. Sure, you're still going to have a great time at that game or concert, but you wish you could share it with them, too.
6 And maybe you're just a little jealous of what they're doing without you.
7 When you are together, there's an unspoken pressure to ~make use~ of all your time together. Yes, celebrate the fact that you're back together, but not every waking moment has to be spent doing something epic. One of our favorite things to do together is read in bed. Sometimes, being lazy and snuggly is just as valuable as getting dolled up for date night.
8 You're not above saying/texting "I miss you" at least once a day. I am unapologetic about this. Same with "I love you." I won't let the distance leave my feelings ambiguous.
9 You get nervous when you don't hear from them for a few hours. Guilty of this. My mind usually goes to the worst-case scenario: dead in a ditch somewhere. Usually he's just playing a video game and hasn't looked at his phone in a while.
10 Setting up visits can be tough. We both have demanding work schedules, which leaves us pretty limited in our ability to use vacations during certain times. I'm typically constrained by the average college academic year (including weekends), while he doesn't want to appear not-dedicated by taking leaves every time it reloads while he's deployed. Figuring out when the next visit is can be super frustrating.
11 You have a countdown until the next time you see each other. We did this a lot more when we first started dating and now to a lesser extent. But it still helps to see the days and — finally — hours dwindle until we're together again.
12 You find yourself feeling a little nervous right before your reunion. Just me? I tend to get butterflies right before I get to the airport to pick him up. That could just be excitement at seeing him again, but just a little part of me almost feels like it's the first time we're meeting again.
13 But nothing beats the feeling of being back in each other's arms. Is there anything better than that happy, smiley, embarrassingly show-off-y reunion kiss at the airport?
14 You pick up right where you left off. Pretty soon, things are back to normal, at least for the too-short time you're back together. It's almost like he never left.
15 You know if your relationship can handle this, it can handle anything. Long distance can be one of the most difficult hurdles to overcome, but if you can navigate it, you know you can handle any other conflict that comes up in your relationship. We're pretty good at the whole long-distance thing, and I know we can get through it because we already have.
But I still can't wait till he's home again.
